Join Me Tomorrow

Linking up with Lisa-Jo today for Five Minute
Friday.Here are her rules:

1.
Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.3.And
then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person
who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously.
That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community..

OK, are you ready? Please give me your best five
minutes on: JOIN

It shouts at us every day:Join Here for Free, Join us, Sign up, Click here.

The call to come and be part of something.A something that has no community, but where
we are a commodity, an information source to help the marketing gurus and
advertising whiz kids push their wares at us in exactly the right way.These are the same ones who line the aisles
of pharmacies with toys cars at just the right height for every 3 to 7 year old
boy .The same ones who have Hello Kitty
greet your knees at the building supply store, but stare longingly into the
eyes of daddy’s little angel that just had to come along.

This is not what I want I want you to join
ME.Join me on a trip through the next 4
months to the celebration of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ.We start here tomorrow and I want you to JOIN
ME and others in a community of support and encouragement and hot chocolate
stirrers made of peppermint sticks.Will
you JOIN?

What a great invitation to something that will feed our souls more deeply than any product we could buy or be lured into supposedly "needing". I will link back up to see what you have in store. Visiting from 5 min Fridays.God bless!

Thanks. Your mother probably actually got the things done that she planned. That is always my problem and one I want to tackle this year. Pleased to meet you! Your words were wonderful, that was a great photo, too!

I know, right?? It's still pretty warm here, too. I'm not going to be pulling out the stockings or anything crazy like that just yet. I hope you'll caom back to see what it's all about. Thanks for coming by.

Sounds like such fun! (I confess I won't be there...way too much stuff going on in my world, but the good news is that I am striving for a seriously reduced commercialized Christmas -- much more focus on the meaning, less on the "stuff")
